Abstract
The application of direct current differential electrolytic potentiome try (dc DEP) to the titration of caffeine in acetic anhydride-toluene mixture has been investigated. A very stable low current source has be en constructed to polarize the antimony electrodes. The behavior of th ese electrodes during the titration of caffeine has been examined. Caf feine in commercial samples like tea, Pepsi as a beverage and Prontopy rin, a proprietary drug, was extracted in chloroform and determined by dc DEP.
